While I had planned to write this newsletter quickly so that I could still get something out of my Saturday morning, I ended up spending at least 15 minutes reading a 100-page report on the<a href=\"https:\/\/prod-drupal-files.storage.googleapis.com\/documents\/resource\/public\/Carbon-impact-of-video-streaming.pdf\"><strong>&nbsp;CO\u2082&nbsp;emissions caused by watching Netflix<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason for my research was\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/innovationorigins.com\/en\/dont-look-up-is-no-laughing-matter-for-climate-scientists\/\"><strong>our columnist Auke Hoekstra&#8217;s sharp criticism<\/strong><\/a> of the Netflix blockbuster<em>\u00a0&#8216;Don&#8217;t Look Up<\/em>&#8216;, which had already been viewed for a total of 150 million hours by early January. Personally, I could laugh at the film starring (among others) Leonardo di Caprio, Meryl Streep and Cate Blanchett, but Auke was not amused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting on Tuesday, we will be doing a deep dive (if I\u2019m honest, a bit because of my fetish for numbers) into the stories behind the figures for the Corona Recovery Fund. We want to know exactly what innovative and CO\u2082-reducing goals the more than \u20ac800 billion from this fund is being spent on. To reassure you, I may be asking the questions, but more mathematically-minded types on the editorial staff are checking the calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/us7.admin.mailchimp.com\/campaigns\/show?id=13618113\"><strong>here for the Innovation Origins weekly review<\/strong><\/a>.
